Definitely
a
'jewel
in
the
Wilderness'
After
you
have
got
your
permit
from
the
Ebb
&
Flow
camp
in
the
Wilderness
National
Park,
proceed
to
the
start
opposite
the
purification
plant
alongside
the
rail/
road
bridge.
This
is
not
any
old
forest
hike,
the
wooden
bridges
and
steps
lure
you
deeper
into
the
forest.
When
descending
to
the
river,
be
on
the
lookout
for
fish
in
the
clear
water.
The
river
is
crossed
by
means
of
stepping
stones
or
pontoon.
Now
follow
the
path
along
the
eastern
bank
of
the
Touw
River
to
the
boardwalk,
which
affords
hikers
beautiful
viewpoints
onto
the
river
and
surrounds.
Due
to
its
wondrous
beauty,
this
world
class
boardwalk
must
be
traversed.
The
waterfall
offers
gorgeous
pools
for
dipping,
and
taking
a
picnic
basket
is
a
good
idea.
The
total
distance
is
7.2km
and
takes
3-4
hours.
Another
equally
beautiful
option
is
hiring
a
canoe
from
Eden
Adventures,
in
the
Ebb
&
Flow
South
rest
camp,
and
rowing
to
a
point
where
the
river
becomes
a
narrow,
shallow
stream.
Views
are
unsurpassed
-
the
water
is
crystal
clear
and
the
trees
add
to
the
general
feeling
of
tranquillity.
Leave
your
canoe
on
the
banks
of
the
river
and
follow
the
path
to
the
boardwalk.
There
are
also
numerous
picnic
spots
to
stop
over
next
to
the
river.
Forgetting
your
camera
will
be
almost
unforgivable.
